Fresh
It's a winning, heartfelt and conflicted piece where the conflicts often resolve themselves in surprising ways.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Rotten
A coming-of-age, coming-out, romantic comedy, religious intolerance flick, and if that sounds a bit crowded, that's because it is.
Tom Long, Detroit News
Rotten
A fairly flat, predictable tale.
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Rotten
It's more melodrama than drama or love story, and Cox, who wrote Sweet Home Alabama, seems to have never met a stereotype he didn't like.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
